A dog owner had his genitals ripped off when he tried to stop his pet pitbull attacking his young daughter.
The man was trying to rescue his eight-year-old girl as the vicious mutt bit her face.
The 90lb mixed breed, called Stitches, punctured the child's cheek, before locking its jaws around her 35-year-old father's groin, Sky News reported.
The New Mexico man was rushed to hospital where he was treated for "partial detachment of the genitals" and "severe lacerations".
The girl was treated at the scene following Saturday's attack.
Albuquerque Police Department spokesman Simon Drobik said: "When we got on the scene the man was bleeding severely and holding his groin.
"It was really bad."
The family said they had only moved in to the house three days before the attack after inheriting it from man's grandfather who had recently died.
They also inherited Stitches, who was removed from the property following the attack.
